Was going to shorten commo vs diff as short as i can fit it in using disks and still meet track requirments.
The track on the front issue has been spinning around in my head for days. I am happy to go to commodore stud pattern as i plan to run 17/18" custom made wheels.
Options are.

VN disks VS calipers. Uknown track change. Unless someone here knows?

Hoppers disks. 32mm track change, any stud pattern dual piston calipers.

UPC ebay disks. 16mm track change, any stud pattern dual piston calipers.

Track of the brakes is main concern as the less track i add the deeper the wheels can be.

Cheers

Well out of necessity i am starting the VS brake upgrade. Wanted to bleed the HR brakes and get it mobile for the move but the old bleed nippes did not want to play the game. Then went to replace the caliper but the hoses are stuck. After a few other issues i bit the bullet and started to get the last few parts together for the commodore upgrade.

Has anyone measured the wheel track increase post upgrading to commodore brakes on HR front end using VN V8 rotors on HT Drum spindles

Handy fabrication skills there whealy. Saves pillaging an ek wiper motor for the base and the arm as well.

Actually have the EK set up but found this to be a better solution. Also didn't want to modify the EK parts.

This is a bit sketchy but I have an ek support which may fit. I'm in sa so only if you're desperate. Contact ring I have is a bit worn/grooved but may come up okay.
Great to see you got those hi tech parts incorporated into your beast. Those racks look like they will do the job when you can't fit the quiver inside but not sure they do the car justice. It's a tough one. Even harder on my ek van as there are no gutters rear of the doors.

Errol,
Haven't heard the world quiver for a while. I'm un sure on the racks too. Would like an older set but this will do for now. I actually put a box on the roof so now its storage for the guards and grill.

Hi, do you find the rear seatbelts efective for children? They look a long way forward.
